Paul Herriott presents a special lyric concert featuring the Degani Piano Trio’s recording of ‘Words and Music’, Beethoven’s Piano Trio Op.1 No.1 in E flat major and excerpts of Beethoven Letters read by Barry McGovern. In celebration of Beethoven’s 250th birthday year this concert explores his personality, creative process and daily life. The vigour and sensitivity of Beethoven’s Piano Trio music is illuminated by excerpts from his letters both funny and heartrending.
